Crib Sheet: The Chips Have Fallen Into the Bowls

The teams have been announced that cards played out on the table. The big hand is lame this year but the side bets are sexier. That’s right the regular season is over and now we are flipping over to bowl season. There were some snubs as usual, but the Big 12 lineup of bowls still looks pretty strong. The Cotton Bowl is right up there with the BCS bowls in terms of interesting match ups. Kansas State vs Arkansas, or Big 12 vs SEC, like it should be. Call your bets and flop on over to this week’s Crib Sheet.

Stanford assistant coach and former Kansas City Chief Chester McGlockton died last week. I remember more for the Chiefs than the college field, but I wanted to send out my condolences to his family and friends.

They said it wasn’t about the money, but it was about the money. That’s what Missouri chancellor Brady Deaton said regarding Missouri’s move to the SEC. Apparently budget cuts in the state school system forced the Tigers hand into a more lucrative conference. At least someone was half honest about why they moved.

The way out of the door of the Big 12, Gary Drinkel voted Oklahoma State #4 in the final coaches poll. What better way to screw the Big 12 than to hit them in the pocket books. He’s a very spiteful person when he drinks. Which is like all the time.
